SHOE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 313,271, dated March 3,1885. Application filed August 7, 1884. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EDWARD ANGLIM, of Brockton, in the county ofPlymouth and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and use fulImprovements in Shoes, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to low-cutshoes; and it consists of a shoeconstructed substantially as shown and described-via, with onequarter,the vamp, and top or button-hole flap all in one piece.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a View of the shoe buttoned.Fig. 2 is a view of the shoe unbuttoned. Fig. 3 is a plan of the patternof the three-quarter vamp, or the quarter, vamp, and top in one piece.Fig. 4 is a plan of the pattern of the other quarter.

From the back seam, at, around the shoe to the seam b is a single pieceof leather cut from the pattern 0 and crimped into the shape shown inFigs. 1 and 2. This includes the quarter A, vamp B, and top 0, said top0 including, as shown, the button-hole flap of a piece with and theprincipal part of the top. The quarter D is cut from the pattern. d.

Thus two front seamsviz., a cross-seam and the seam for the button-holeflapare dispensed with, saving so much stitching and the extra stockrequired at the seams, and providing less seams to give Way. A handsomeand easy fit is produced, and a stylish and neat appearance obtained.

4 Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is

The herein-described improved shoe, provided with the quarter A, vamp B,and top 0, including the button-hole flap, all cut and made in a singlepiece and crimped into the shape shown, and the quarter D, substantiallyas and for the purpose set forth.
